2.3 RCI Setup for Addition of an RCI I/O Unit
2.3.2 Connecting an RCI cable
1 Insert a T-branch connector and an RCI cable into the existing set of connections
of RCI cables.
2 Connect the T-branch connector to the RCI I/O unit to be added.
2.3.3 Making an RCI expansion setting
The added RCI I/O unit must be connected to the RCI network.
An RCI address is automatically set for the added RCI I/O unit so that the unit can use
RCI functions.
An RCI expansion setting can be made only once from an arbitrary RCI host.
Note: Before beginning this RCI setup work, confirm that AC cables are connected
to all RCI units.
Note: To make an RCI expansion setting for an RCI unit equipped with a main line
switch, set the main line switch to the ON position.
• To make an RCI expansion setting:
1 Execute the setrci (8) command, and make an RCI expansion setting.
• To confirm an RCI expansion setting:
1 Execute the setrci (8) command to display the RCI status.
Confirm that the displayed LIST contents include the connected RCI I/O unit.
For details on LIST contents, see Chapter 3, "Command Reference."
